That kid who dropped Cabrera's HR should have been douchy and worn a glove...

Wait a minute

Galley Boys are slop on top of a so-so burger and a bun you coulde get from a Covneninet food mart generic pack. They the Antoine Joubert of burgers; soft, sloppy, oozing grease and cheap sauce and extremely overrated by a biased fan base. Proof that if you throw enough cheap sauce shit on a burger you still can't overcome the lame burger. -JB

you must be excited or....... .....cause you cursed

Excited, of course. Too early in the day to start drinking since the Tribe is winning.

Great game by Jimenez today. I never thought I'd see this guy twirl 8 shutout innings at any point in his career. Still not sold on his supposed resurrection, but if he can do something like this another twenty or so times this year, I'd be happy. That's not too much to ask, is it?

Jimenez was at 108 pitches. He wasn't coming back out, extra day of rest before his next start or not. No reason to go 120 in a 5-0 game with a guy who has a history of spotty command and inconsistent mechanics.

Nice win. Get the series tomorrow.

I was looking at the other side of this. He wasn't struggling even at 108 (although it was the first time he has gone 8.0 this year). I thought it might help his psyche to get the CG shutout. Pulling him there was probably the right move though.

Archer has some good stuff and got up to 99 mph, but hung a couple of breaking balls at the wrong time to the wrong guys.

In Ubaldo's last eight starts he has given up two runs or less in seven of them. I'll take that all year long. I've said it before - sign Callaway to a lifetime contract. Did anybody think Ubaldo could be fixed? Not anybody on this board.

That was hosed up last night. They charged fans full price for tickets for a 7 pm game, then play the game in the middle of the night. That game should have been cancelled and scheduled for today as part of a day/night doubleheader. AFAIC, they ripped off the fans.

^ based on today's forecast they would have been lucky to get both games in if they did this. No one wanted to have to play it last night but it was nice to see the players acknowledge the fans who sayed, even Longoria on twitter was impressed
